CPAP Freedom - Average Run Times; Impact of Humidification & Pressure

4
Multiple factors will affect how long the Freedom
TM
CPAP Battery will power
a PAP device, including, but not limited to device type, pressure setting,
altitude, humidifier usage, and the required connection component type.
BiLevel devices will have lower run times as the pressure setting is not
constant and changes throughout the night requiring more power to
operate the device.
The use of heated humidification and heated tubing will significantly
reduce expected run times by up to two thirds in most cases and in
some cases could prevent the battery from being able to power the
PAP device. To obtain optimal battery performance we recommend you
forgo the use of heated humidification and heated tubing.
Average run times are based on standard CPAP devices without the use of
heated humidification or heated tubing on a pressure setting of
10 cm/H2O. To increase average run times the battery can be used in a
dual battery configuration by pigtailing two batteries together.

Powering Other Devices
The Freedom
TM
CPAP Battery can be used to power many common handheld
electronic devices such as cell phones, iPods, MP3 players, and tablets
via the 5V USB port or DC input cord.
USB PORT CONNECTION
 Plug the device’s USB cord into the USB OUT port of the battery.
 Press the charge level indicator button once to initiate power output
from the USB OUT port.
 Turn the device on and it should begin functioning.
 The digital display screen will show the charge level of the battery.
You may press the charge level indicator button to illuminate this
screen. It will stay illuminated for a few seconds at a time. Pressing
this button again will not turn the battery off it will simply illuminate
the display screen.
 When not in use disconnect all devices from the battery thus allowing
the battery to completely shut down.

It is possible to have a portable electronic device and a PAP device
connected to the Freedom™ battery simultaneously; however, this could
impact PAP device run times.
